Drinking is viewed by young people as a predominantly social activity which provides an opportunity for entertainment and bonding with friends. Using Bourdieu's concepts of habitus, field capital, this article explores people's attitudes beliefs around alcohol use, influences on behaviour, the role peers, view to informing development preventive interventions.

They have about 10 times fewer neurons than adult flies, it was low total number their that allowed electron microscopic reconstruction brain at synaptic resolution. Regarding mushroom body, a central structure many associative learning in insects, turned out more half classes connection had previously escaped attention.

ABSTRACT Amidst a global nursing shortage, ensuring sufficient nurses are available to care for patients is an international policy priority. High‐income countries have developed and implemented numerous models ensure safe nurse staffing, yet evidence recommend any single methodology remains limited. Existing research primarily evaluates staffing systems by inputs outcomes, neglecting their internal dynamics. Using qualitative case study data from England Wales drawing on practice...
Abstract Background The way information about potential harms of trial intervention is shared within participant leaflets (PILs) varies widely and can cause subjective ‘nocebo’ harms. This study aimed to develop principles improve the composition benefits PILs so that variability avoidable are reduced. Methods We conducted a two-round modified online Delphi survey, followed by consensus meeting. For first round 27 statements were developed based on previous research relevant guidance from...
In hospital, staff need to routinely monitor patients identify those who are seriously ill, so that they receive timely treatment improve their condition. A Paediatric Early Warning System is a multi-faceted socio-technical system detect deterioration in children, which may or not include track and trigger tool. It functions monitor, prompt an urgent response signs of deterioration, with the aim preventing morbidity mortality. The purpose this study develop evidence-based improvement...
Whether implicit or explicit, professional judgement is a central component of the many nurse staffing systems implemented in high-income countries to inform workforce planning and staff deployment.

Paediatric mortality rates in the United Kingdom are amongst highest Europe. Clinically missed deterioration is a contributory factor. Evidence to support any single intervention address this problem limited, but cumulative body of research highlights need for systems approach. An evidence-based, theoretically informed, paediatric early warning system improvement programme (PUMA Programme) was developed and implemented two general hospitals (no onsite Intensive Care Unit) tertiary (with...
The way potential benefits and harms of trial interventions are shared within patient information leaflets (PILs) varies widely may cause unnecessary ("nocebo effects"). aim this meta-analysis will be to evaluate the influence on recruitment rates early effects reported adverse events principled (PrinciPILs) compared with standard PILs.
In the light of concern about harmful effects media reporting suicides and a lack comparative research, this study compares number characteristics reports on road traffic accidents (RTAs) in young people (aged 11–18) newspapers Twitter during 6-month period. Tweets people's were more numerous than newspaper reports. strongly correlated for RTAs. Recent less likely to be reported recent deaths by RTA. Bullying-related especially newsworthy. Suicide prevention organizations should consider...
